Broke the world record in the substitute in the world CUP-premiere

"Broke the world record in the substitute in the world CUP-premiere"

"the Unified Korea has four players more than other world CUP nations."

"COPENHAGEN. Kristján Andrésson would like to see more troops in handbollsmästerskapen due to the heavy load."

"But a team may have four players more in the CUP than the other – the united Korean team."

"– Wonderful if we for the sake of peace can stand it, " says Andrésson."

"But extraspelarna helped in the premiere – Germany won easily."

"In the winter OLYMPICS in Pyeongchang last year, raced North and south Korea for the first time under a common flag."

"Now the tour has come to handball."

"In the evening played a united Korea against the host nation Germany in the world CUP's first match."

"instead of any of the countries' national anthems were played the Korean folk song Arirang as the law stands were all lined up. It also uses the same vitblåa flag during the OLYMPICS."

"According to coach Young Shin Cho is the big goal in the world CUP ”to show what real team spirit is.”"

"It was south Korea, which had its heyday in the late 1980s and early 90s, which qualified for the world CUP by becoming the third in the asian championship. On the men's side is north korea's results are non-existent."

"Want more troops"

"The Swedish coach Kristján Andrésson want to – by reason of the heavy load that is on the players that constantly come up for debate when there'sa mastery and top player after top player being forced to say no because of the damage – in the future to have more troops and more prey in the championship. "

" Shall we play like this thick (ten games in seventeen days, if you reach the final), you have to find other ways to ensure that the players are more healthy and the quality of the game at the end of the tournament will be higher. The recovery time is not reasonable as it is now. I think in the longer tournaments and more players available, " Andrésson. "

"Korea has been granted an exemption"

"IN the CHAMPIONSHIP you have to be max 16 players and only three substitutions may be made throughout the tournament. Therefore, the several nations to keep a place open in the squad to avoid having to use a replacement then you often have one or more småskadade player when you go into the world CUP."

"Therefore, it is interesting that the international handball federation has made an exception for the Korean team and allow them to have with all the 20 players in the world CUP. The team consists of 16 sydkoreaner and 4 north koreans."

"It was, therefore, crowded on the bench with 13 subs, which was a kind of world record in handbollssammanhang, in the premiere against Germany."

"Andrésson will, however, not upset at all over koreanernas favor."

"– well It's wonderful if we for the sake of peace can stand it, the rest of us. I supporters it all the days of the week, " he says."

"The four extraspelarna helped little. The host nation Germany ran over Korea with 30-19."

"One of the nordkorenanerna, Kyong Song Ri, did in all cases, a goal."
